Chapter 196 - The Fall Of Many People (1)

"Violence will not work against you."

"You sound as if you know me so well."

"It's been hard on you."

Long Ying's eyes flickered slightly, then he shook his head. "It doesn't matter anymore."

Long Shu Ting didn't answer again. His eyes followed his son, who appeared from the maze with Yu Yan. "Take care of her well, Shu Ying."

Long Ying's eyes narrowed for a moment. He nodded. "I don't need you to remind me for that."

Yu Yan saw that Long Shu Ting had come. She smiled and greeted, "Brother in law."

"Mhm. Shu Ying is already itching to return back and I have some matters that I need to attend to, so please pardon me for not showing proper courtesy to you, Sister in law."

"It's fine. I know that you're busy, Brother in law." Yu Yan turned to look at Zhou Xi An. "Sister in law, I'll return back first. Take care of yourself. And see you later, Lil Ao Jiang."

"Yes Aunt!" Long Ao Jiang returned back to his mother's side and waved his small hands.

His cute gesture nearly made Yu Yan unwilling to leave the little brat. She moved to Long Ying's side as he bade his farewell and they entered back to the venue. There was barely anyone who stayed behind.

Yu Yan's eyes noticed Lei Xing Yi, who was waiting for her. "Cousin Xing Yi."

"Sister Yan." Lei Xing Yi then looked at Long Ying and greeted. "Cousin Brother in law Long."

Long Ying nodded but didn't speak. He had no intention to speak so much with Lei Xing Yi when he was not close to her. Seeing that his wife wanted for them to speak in private, he tactfully moved back.

Yu Yan looked at Lei Xing Yi and smiled. "What is it, Cousin Xing Yi?"

"You sure hide things well, Sister Yan. I would have never guessed that way if only I didn't come here today," Lei Xing Yi teased.

"I can't help it." Yu Yan showed a helpless smile. "It's not like I can flaunt my husband's profession, can I?"

"Well, that's also true." Lei Xing Yi sighed. She knew that it hasn't been easy for Yu Yan either. Not allowed to slap those people's face… was certainly not easy. "I'll take care of some problems in my ends. Thank you for the information you shared to me."

"I didn't do anything."

Lei Xing Yi smiled. "I don't really care about the Dragon Clan but I hope that you can do your work well. I don't want to see the company go bankrupt just because I'm dealing with some scums."

"Don't worry." Yu Yan patted Lei Xing Yi's shoulder. "I'll make sure that Xingyan Company will not be destroyed so easily."

"Good."

The two of them talked for a bit more before they bade their farewell. It was already past midnight and even though it was already New Year, there would be some activities they needed to do. For example, visiting their parents?

Or something like that.

Long Ying grabbed Yu Yan's hand from behind and led her out of the venue. When they reached the car, he arched his eyebrows and signaled his wife to start asking the question she wanted to ask.

"Long Shu Ying?" Yu Yan asked in a playful tone.

Long Ying narrowed his eyes as he looked at his little wife. "That's my real name but no one will use it."

"Why?"

"Because I'm not going to return back to Long Family as their young master. After this matter is over, I'll just stay hidden at the back and deal with the other matters that can't be said."

Yu Yan tilted her head. "But wouldn't it mean that you're deceiving people?"

"I have two names registered." Long Ying was amused. "The third young master of Long Family, Long Shu Ying. At the same time, I'm an orphan named Long Ying."

"Ah…"

In order to evade the prying eyes of so many people, Long Ying did have two legal identities. It was these two identities that allowed him to not be associated to Long Family all these years. For him, it was already good enough that he could stay away from complicated matters.

He had no intention of associating himself with the Long Family if only this matter didn't blow up so badly like this.

"Will things be fine?" Yu Yan asked worriedly. "What if your father… Long Shao Huai wants to eliminate you because you're acting out of the line?"

"He won't."

"Really?"

Long Ying nodded. There were some incidents in the Long Family that was not disclosed outside because of some reasons. One of them was the fact that his father was injured in an attempt to kill him. 

Of course, it was not Long Ying who did it. No matter how much he hated his father, he would not take the other party's life through schemes like this. He was not that idle to make himself become a criminal.

The real culprit… will show himself soon.

Long Ying looked at his wife and sighed. "You can rest. Nothing will happen to you and tomorrow, I'll take you take a look at some things."

"Some things?" Yu Yan was confused."

"Mhm." Long Ying squinted his eyes as he thought of the matter on hand. He didn't really want to get involved but now that he had already showed his real identity, he knew that there would be some people who were impatience.

"Sleep."

"Okay…" Yu Yan closed her eyes and leaned on Long Ying's shoulder. 

…

Yu Family Residence

"What are you doing?" Kang Mao Lan nearly screamed when she saw what her husband was doing. "You want to sell the entire company? That's your lifeline!"

Yu Zheng Tong looked at his wife with an indifferent expression without answering her question. From the moment he saw that Long Ying was actually Long Shu Ying, the third young master of Long Family, he knew that he was done for.

There was no hope for him to survive in City A anymore.
